I took list advice and went with Tower and got a Leopard2 A6 .VS IR tank. I have dealt with Tower since the early 90's and they have always been stellar. I plan to convert it to the A6 the Canadians are using in Afghanistan, I think they have 20 on loan from the Bundeswehr. Dacostasr has a M1 Abrams IR, so it looks like Canada and the US are going to war !
